The branch, which includes in its membership a high percentage of all the ex-service men in the vi cinity, passed by a overwhelming majority a resolution protesting aganst the proposed action of the government in penalizing pension ers by their peiision allowance and endorsed the action of the province and dominion commands in carrying th© protests to the government.

The three-act comedy drama “Jimmy Be Careful” put on in the Exeter Opera Hous© by th© Clinton players under the auspices of Hurondale Women’s Institute Friday evening of last week, did draw the crowd that the play served. This was partly accounted for, however, by the bad condition of the roads as there was a fairly good representation from town. The play was especially wholesome, in- terspefrsed with humor and those present enjoyed a real treat. All of the characters took their parts well, some especially so. Rev. Mr. and Mrs. Farrill accompanied the play ers and Mrs. Farrill gave a summary of the play and introduced each member of the cast to the audience. Mrs. H. C. Lawson took a leading part that of Ma Blake in th© play.

Pearson acted Jim Fish er, Verna’s fiance and J. Douglas was Willie Blake, Ma’s only son. Marion Thompson as Aunt Ellen Means, Ma Blake’s sister, and Ar thur Groves as Chris. Means, Aunt Ellen’s better half and Percy Liv-! ermore, as Herb Clark, dangling on Verna’s string, completed the caste with the exception of two of most interesting personages added considerable interest to production. These were Tillie, Blake’s foreign maid, Virginia zell, and Pietro, her -admirer, Hugh Colver. Mr. Colver -was form erly on the staff of the Canadian Bank of Commerce here .M'iss Kath leen Strang played several instru mental selections before formance, and between Stainton and Miss solos, the former by Mrs. Carey and W.
